As its big lead slowly disappeared, last Tuesday, the Anderson County volleyball team needed a dig.

A dig of its own attitude.

Even though the Lady Bearcats had already won the first game, 25-23, over rival Franklin County, a five-point lead was quickly gone as Franklin County knotted things with the teams deadlocked at 11 in the second game.

The University of Kentucky’s football team made headlines last week for all the right reasons.

According to reports from several media outlets, 30 members of the team helped the Christian Appalachian Project load supplies Thursday into trucks that would travel to Pike County, an area hit hard by flooding last month.

At least one report said 50 team members signed up to participate, but the project could only accommodate 30.

On its website, www.christianapp.org, the project confirms it received some help from some very eager team members.
